| A good novelist must excel in two areas: a beautiful arrangement of words, and clever perspectives to show a new slant on everyday concepts. Harrison satisfies the first point by being casually conversational so that the reader feels like he/she is e ...more | |
“I was rich, for there was nothing else that I needed or wanted.”

“Don’t trees swallow the fire of the sun? When wood burns, is it not surrendering all those photons of energy that the tree’s leaves once snatched from sunlight and eventually stored within woody fiber?”

“In those days a man could pick up, head out West, and start a new life . . . choose any name he wanted. But the man who made his mark in the history books is probably one who stayed true to who he was . . . no matter what he called himself.”

“Every plant you see around you has a God-given purpose...some to cure a disease, others to keep off the skeeters, and plenty to nourish you. If people tell you a plant has no value, it just means they have forgot the old ways."

“To know a plant well, you must sit with it for as long as it takes to draw its picture. The next time you see that plant in another place, you will encounter an old friend." From "A Copperhead Summer”

“Though scientists may never verify an answer as to what fundamental, defining trait differentiates man from the creatures of the wild, I will set forth this theory: Could it be that we alone can imagine what it is to be someone or something other than ourselves?
